Badgers Clement suffers cut on his hand at incident at apartment building

It’s been a bad season for Badgers running back Corey Clement.

After missing most of the season with sports hernia surgery, the Badgers sent an email to media saying that Clement has suffered a cut on his hand from an altercation at his off-campus apartment building. Here’s the statement from UW Football:

“Wisconsin junior running back Corey Clement suffered a cut to his hand following an incident at his off-campus residence early Sunday morning.

Clement was returning to his residence when he witnessed a verbal dispute between a security guard at his apartment building and a group of individuals. Clement became engaged in the dispute. He and the security guard were then assaulted by the individuals, resulting in a cut to Clement’s hand.

He attended the Badgers’ practice on Wednesday but did not participate, as planned, due to his continued rehab from his sports hernia injury.

Due to an ongoing police investigation into the matter, Clement, head coach Paul Chryst and the Wisconsin Athletic Department will have no further comment on the incident.”

We will find out more in the coming weeks. In the meantime, The Hub (his apartment building) should re-evaluate its security.
